Former Australian cricketer Shane Warne has confirmed that he got down on one knee to propose to girlfriend Elizabeth Hurley.

Warne took to Twitter to thank well-wishers amid reports suggesting he had asked the model-turned-actress to marry him at the exclusive Old Course Hotel in St Andrews, in front of a VIP crowd of diners.

He disputed earlier reports suggesting he proposed before a crowd.

"I didn't propose in front of 200 people at dinner It was done privately and was very romantic - if I say so myself Ps left knee is sore !!!" the Herald Sun quoted Warne as tweeting.

"Thanks so much again for all your kind messages, they mean a lot.. EH and I very happy and have had a beautiful lazy day today."
